[TITLE: The Elf on the Shelf (Loves You Too)] [VERSE 1] I showed up when December hit, Candy cane grin, I’m back at it. Sneakin’ round with my tiny feet, You’ll never know where I’ll be! Sprinkles spill, the cookies call, Oops — I may have licked them all. Lights are tangled, cocoa’s gone, I’m just keepin’ Christmas on! [PRE-CHORUS] Every night I watch and play, Spreading cheer in my own way. [CHORUS] I’m your Elf on the Shelf, I’ve got a job to do, Keepin’ Santa posted straight from you. I cause a little trouble, it’s true, it’s true — But every prank’s a way to say “I love you.” Yeah, I’m makin’ magic, that’s my cue, Your Elf on the Shelf loves you too! [VERSE 2] Hide and seek, I never lose, Snowflake crown, I’m front-page news. Flour angels in the kitchen mess, Sorry ‘bout the nighttime stress. Wrote your name on the frosted glass, Signed it “Santa’s VIP pass.” From your tree to your living room, I’m the sparkle, you’re the tune! [PRE-CHORUS] Catch me if you can tonight, Blink once — I’m outta sight! [CHORUS] I’m your Elf on the Shelf, I’ve got a job to do, Keepin’ Santa posted straight from you. I cause a little trouble, it’s true, it’s true — But every prank’s a way to say “I love you.” Yeah, I’m makin’ magic, that’s my cue, Your Elf on the Shelf loves you too! [BRIDGE] When Christmas morning’s almost here, I’ll wave goodbye till next year. But don’t you cry — just wink, it’s fine, I’ll be back for cookie time! [FINAL CHORUS] I’m your Elf on the Shelf, I’ve got a job to do, Keepin’ Christmas bright ‘cause of you! I cause a little trouble, it’s true, it’s true — But every laugh’s my gift to you. Yeah, I’m makin’ magic, that’s my cue, Your Elf on the Shelf loves you too! [OUTRO] (Yeah… your Elf on the Shelf loves you too!)
